Abstract
A trailer incorporator for towing behind a slurry wagon for incorporating slurry into soil on farms comprising a manifold for distributing the slurry to a plurality of injectors mounted on the trailer, a plurality of coulters on the trailer and adjustments to position the injectors, coulter and wheels on the trailer and for tilting the trailer fore and aft. The trailer has one connection point to the slurry wagon to allow a pivotable connection for ease of making turns with the trailer when the coulters and plows are engaging the soil. The trailer removes weight from the slurry wagon allowing for a wider distribution of slurry by a wider trailer, and removing weight from the slurry wagon reducing soil compaction and allowing for more slurry to be put in the slurry wagon without overloading it. The trailer therefore allows for more efficient operations.
